Prospects Of Samoan
From Our Own Correspondent.
Apia, Nov. 26.
ACCORDING to reports from outside districts copra is coming in in large quantities, exceeding deliveries for the same period last year.
After the recent ample rains the cocoa crop has started and prospects are now much better, though the main crop will not be due before March of next year.
Unfortunately, market reports are con tinuing bad, and lately a large quantity of the accumulation of Samoan cocoa in the States has been shipped to the Eng lish market and sold at 8½ cents per lb., a very low rate for quality product.
